"September Song (1965)"

Oh, it's a long, long while, from May to December,
And the days too short when you reach September.
And the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame.
One hasn't the time for the waiting game.

Days dwindle down to a precious few...
September ... November ...

Those few precious days I'll spend with you.
Those golden days I'll share with you.

Days dwindle down to a precious few...

Those few precious days I'll spend with you.
Those golden days I'll share with you.
